Comment and I'll pick seven of your icons, and then you will explain why you love/are using the icon (who doesn't love talking about their icons, seriously) and then post your explanation/this meme in your journal for other people to squee about their icons, and basically it will be a huge squeefest of love and 100x100 square pixels.



It's something that Jac said to me during one of my freakouts. I'm actually not sure why I still have it, except that it's nicely...nonsensical.


A quote, slightly misquoted, from the amazing Slings & Arrows. Paul Gross being the world's best Shakespeare director in a seminar for unhappy white-collar workers. And fucking around with text is my favourite thing to do.


I went through a penguin phase in iconning and came upon this adorable penguin modeling for a camera.


GIGGY! Jean-Sebastien Giguere celebrating a win in the only appropriate way. By doing a stupid dance.


My hockey OT3, broken now by the threat of retirement. *sniff* Duck captains all...Equals...*weep*


Starbuck, my current favourite TV character, and a line from Henry V, my favourite Shakespeare history. Really, I think that "Once more unto the breach" is comparable to "AAAARRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGG!!!!"


The beautiful and extremely talented Wao Yoka of Takarazuka, part of perhaps the most beloved top combi in recent memory, in the role that made me love her, the Phantom in the Takarazuka version of Phantom of the Opera. Guh. So gorgeous.

amaresu: Dinosaur comics panel 'Explain!' (dino-explain)
From: [personal profile] amaresu
1. I randomly came across this one and fell in love. It's little black dots bouncing up and down. What isn't to love about it? Also you can spend far too much time just watching it.

2.It's Gir sucking on candy canes. It's both humorous and disturbing. Also for a long time it was my only Christmas icon. And sometimes you just need an icon that says I'm happy doing this incredibly stupid thing right now. Yes.

3. That is from the DC Dictionary that someone on [livejournal.com profile] scans_daily made icons out of. To me it kinda says: Why yes that is weird/unusual/not of the norm but I like it and thus I will "put" it with the other things that are weird/unusual/not of the norm that I also like. Yay.

4. It's Erimem. Erimem is awesome. Erimem travels with Five and her and Peri are lesbian lovers. I refuse to believe that that isn't canon. She also used to be a Pharaoh and they frequently disguise themselves with Erimem as the noble and the Doctor and Peri her servants. Erimem is utterly fantastic from the word go. I'm sure I will cry in January when she leaves. Stupid new head of Big Finish.

5. That is a quote from The Holy Terror, which I've never actually finished listening to because Forbisher was annoying me. But it is also appropriate in all sorts of situations. Such as when things that normally work suddenly don't. Not because I've been using the light reflectors to create fish to chase in the bathtub, but you know for equally weird reasons.

6. That is from the Little Endless Storybook. In which Delirium loses her dog (or more accurately he loses her). Barnabus (the dog) goes around to all of the rest of the Endless trying to find her and they each give him a charm. All hooked together they are shown in the icon. Barnabus then uses the charms as a collar for Delirium so she can't go wondering off anymore. I think that says it all really.

7. Menchi! He is from Excel Saga and is a dog. Despite looking like a cat. The important thing is that the main characters keep him around as an emergency food supply.

I Cannot Hide What I Am

I must be sad when I have cause and smile
at no man's jests, eat when I have stomach and wait
for no man's leisure, sleep when I am drowsy and
tend on no man's business, laugh when I am merry and
claw no man in his humour...
I had rather be a canker in a hedge than a rose in
his grace, and it better fits my blood to be
disdained of all than to fashion a carriage to rob
love from any: in this, though I cannot be said to
be a flattering honest man, it must not be denied
but I am a plain-dealing villain. I am trusted with
a muzzle and enfranchised with a clog; therefore I
have decreed not to sing in my cage. If I had my
mouth, I would bite; if I had my liberty, I would do
my liking: in the meantime let me be that I am and
seek not to alter me.
